E. California Exhaust Emission Standards.

Delete 40 CFR §§86.1811 through 86.1819.

Introduction. The following Section E. contains the exhaust emission standards, phase-in

requirements and reactivity adjustment factors applicable to California passenger cars, light-duty trucks

and medium-duty vehicles. A manufacturer must demonstrate compliance with the exhaust standards

applicable to specific test groups, and with the composite phase-in requirements applicable to the

manufacturer's entire fleet.

A manufacturer has the option of certifying engines used in incomplete and diesel MDVs with a

gross vehicle weight rating of greater than 8,500 lbs. to the heavy-duty engine standards and test

procedures set forth in sections 1956.8(g) and (h), title 13, CCR, except when the federal vehicle is

chassis-certified. If a federal vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of greater than 8,500 lbs. is

certified to chassis standards, then the equivalent California vehicle must either be certified to the

exhaust emission standards applicable to medium-duty vehicles as set forth in section 1961, title 13,

CCR or to the federal Tier 2 standards, as per the requirements of section H.1.4 of these test

procedures.

The procedures for meeting the ZEV phase-in requirements and for earning ZEV credits are

contained in the “California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2003 and Subsequent

Model Zero-Emission Vehicles, and 2001 and Subsequent Model Hybrid Electric Vehicles, in the

Passenger Car, Light-Duty Truck and Medium-Duty Vehicle Classes,” as incorporated by reference in

section 1962, title 13, CCR.

1.12 When a Federally-Certified Vehicle Model is Required in California.

1.12.1 Basic Requirement. Whenever a manufacturer federally-certifies a 2004 or

subsequent model-year passenger car, light-duty truck or medium-duty vehicle model to the standards

for a particular emissions bin that are more stringent than the standards for an applicable California

vehicle emissions category, the equivalent California model may only be certified to (i) the California

standards for a vehicle emissions category that are at least as stringent as the standards for the

corresponding federal emissions bin, or (ii) the exhaust emission standards to which the federal model is

certified. However, where the federal exhaust emission standards for the particular emissions bin and

the California standards for a vehicle emissions category are equally stringent, the California model may

only be certified to either the California standards for that vehicle emissions category or more stringent

California standards. The federal emission bins are those contained Tables S04-1 and S04-2 of 40

CFR section 86.1811-04(c) as adopted February 10, 2000. The criteria for applying this requirement

are set forth in Part I. Section H.1 of these test procedures.

1.12.2 Exception for Clean Fuel Fleet Vehicles. This requirement does not apply

in the case of a federally-certified vehicle model that is only marketed to fleet operators for applications

that are subject to clean fuel fleet requirements established pursuant to section 246 of the federal Clean

Air Act (42 U.S.C. sec. 7586). In addition, the Executive Officer shall exclude from the requirements a

federally-certified vehicle model where the manufacturer demonstrates to the Executive Officer's

reasonable satisfaction that the model will primarily be sold or leased to clean fuel fleet operators for

such applications, and that other sales or leases of the model will be incidental to marketing to those

clean fuel fleet operators.

1.12.3 Opt-in for 2003 or Prior Model-Year Vehicles. A manufacturer may certify

LVW or 0.100 g/mi for LDTs from 3751-5750 lbs. LVW calculated in accordance with

subsection E.2.1.2. In 2007 and subsequent model years, a small volume manufacturer shall

not exceed a fleet average NMOG value of 0.075 for PCs and LDTs from 0-3750 lbs. LVW

or 0.075 for LDTs from 3751 lbs. LVW - 8,500 lbs. GVW calculated in accordance with

subsection E.2.1.2.

(b) If a manufacturer's average California sales exceeds 4500 units of new

PCs, LDTs, MDVs and heavy duty engines based on the average number of vehicles sold for

the three previous consecutive model years, the manufacturer shall no longer be treated as a

small volume manufacturer and shall comply with the fleet average requirements applicable to

larger manufacturers as specified in section E.2.1.2 beginning with the fourth model year after

the last of the three consecutive model years.

(c) If a manufacturer's average California sales falls below 4500 units of

new PCs, LDTs, MDVs and heavy duty engines based on the average number of vehicles sold

for the three previous consecutive model years, the manufacturer shall be treated as a small

volume manufacturer and shall be subject to the requirements for small volume manufacturers

beginning with the next model year.

2.1.4 Phase-in Requirements for Independent Low Volume Manufacturers

In 2001 through 2006 model years, an independent low volume manufacturer shall not

exceed a fleet average NMOG value of 0.075 g/mi for PCs and LDTs from 0-3750 lbs. LVW

been counted toward the ZEV requirement for PCs and LDTs (0-3750 lbs. LVW) as specified

in Section C of the “California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2003 and

Subsequent Model Zero-Emission Vehicles, and 2001 and Subsequent Model Hybrid Electric

Vehicles, in the Passenger Car, Light-Duty Truck and Medium-Duty Vehicle Classes,” as

incorporated by reference in section 1962, title 13, CCR, shall be included in this equation.

2.2 LEV II Phase-In Requirement.

 Beginning in the 2004 model year, a manufacturer, except a small volume manufacturer

or an independent low volume manufacturer, shall certify a percentage of its PC and LDT fleet to the

LEV II standards in section E.1.1.2 according to the following phase-in schedule:

Model Year PC/LDT1 (%) LDT2 (%)

2004 25 25

2005 50 50

2006 75 75

2007 100 100

In determining compliance with the phase-in schedule, the fleet shall consist of LEV I and LEV II PCs

and LDT1s for the PC/LDT1 calculation, and LEV I and LEV II LDT2s for the LDT2 calculation.

LEV I MDVs are not counted in the calculation until they are certified as LEV II LDT2s.

A manufacturer may use an alternative phase-in schedule to comply with these phase-in

requirements as long as equivalent NOx emission reductions are achieved by the 2007 model year from

each of the two categories – PC/LDT1 or LDT2. Model year emission reductions shall be calculated

by multiplying the percent of either PC/LDT1 or LDT2 vehicles meeting the LEV II standards in a given

model year (based on a manufacturer's projected sales volume of vehicles in each category) by 4 for the

2004 model year, 3 for the 2005 model year, 2 for the 2006 model year and 1 for the 2007 model

year. The yearly results for PCs/LDT1s shall be summed together to determine a separate cumulative

total for PCs/LDT1s and the yearly results for LDT2s shall be summed together to determine a

cumulative total for LDT2s. The cumulative total for each category must be equal to or exceed 500 to

be considered equivalent. A manufacturer may add vehicles introduced before the 2004 model year

(e.g., the percent of vehicles introduced in 2003 would be multiplied by 5) to the cumulative total.

model years, a small volume manufacturer shall certify, produce, and deliver for sale in

California vehicles or engines certified to the MDV Tier 1 standards in a quantity equivalent to

100% of its MDV fleet. In 2004 through 2006 and subsequent model years, a small volume

manufacturer shall certify, produce, and deliver for sale in California vehicles or engines certified

to the MDV LEV standards in a quantity equivalent to 100% of its MDV fleet. Engines

certified to these MDV LEV standards are not eligible for emissions averaging.

(c) Phase-In Requirements for LEV II MDVs. For the 2004 through 2006

model years, a manufacturer, other than a small volume manufacturer must phase-in at least one

test group per model year to the MDV LEV II standards. All 2007 and subsequent model year

MDVs, including those produced by a small volume manufacturer, are subject to the LEV II

MDV standards. Beginning in the 2005 model year, all medium-duty engines certified to the

optional medium-duty engine standards in title 13, CCR §1956.8(c) or (h), including those

produced by a small volume manufacturer, must meet the standard set forth in title 13, CCR

§1956.8(c) or (h), as applicable. A manufacturer that elects to certify to the Option 1 or

Option 2 federal standards as set forth in 40 CFR §86.005-10(f) is not subject to these phasein requirements.

2.3.2 Identifying a Manufacturer's MDV Fleet. For the 2001 and subsequent

model years, each manufacturer's MDV fleet shall be defined as the total number of Californiacertified MDVs produced and delivered for sale in California. The percentages shall be applied

to the manufacturer’s’ total production of California-certified medium-duty vehicles delivered

(a) For the purposes of the implementation schedule set forth in this subparagraph

2.4.1, each manufacturer's PC and LDT fleet shall be defined as the total projected number of

Tier 1 and TLEV PCs and LDTs from 0-5750 lbs. LVW sold in California. As an option, a

manufacturer may elect to have its total PC and LDT fleet defined, for the purposes of this

implementation schedule only, as the total projected number of the manufacturer's PCs and

LDTs, other than zero-emission vehicles, certified and sold in California.

(b) The phase-in requirements for small volume manufacturers are set forth in

Section D.2.1.6 of these test procedures.

2.4.2 (a) A manufacturer of PCs, LDTs, and MDVs certified to the LEV, ULEV and

SULEV standards as set forth in Section E.1 of these test procedures, except a small volume

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

E-21

equivalent emission reductions by the end of the last model year of the scheduled phase-in.

Model-year emission reductions shall be calculated by multiplying the percent of vehicles (based

on the manufacturer's projected California sales volume of the applicable vehicle fleet) meeting

the new requirements per model year by the number of model years implemented prior to and

including the last model year of the scheduled phase-in. The “cumulative total” is the summation

of the model-year emission reductions (e.g., a four model-year 25/50/85/100 percent phase-in

schedule would be calculated as: (25%*4 years) + (50%*3 years) + (85%*2 years) +

(100%*1 year) = 520). Any alternative phase-in that results in an equal or larger cumulative

total than the required cumulative total by the end of the last model year of the scheduled phasein shall be considered acceptable by the Executive Officer under the following conditions: 1) all

vehicles subject to the phase-in shall comply with the respective requirements in the last model

year of the required phase-in schedule and 2) if a manufacturer uses the optional phase-in

percentage determination in Section 2.4.1(a) above, the cumulative total of model-year emission

reductions as determined only for PCs and LDTs certified to this Section 2.4.2. must also be

equal to or larger than the required cumulative total by end of the 2004 model year. A

manufacturer shall be allowed to include vehicles introduced before the first model year of the

scheduled phase-in (e.g., in the previous example, 10 percent introduced one year before the

scheduled phase-in begins would be calculated as: (10%*5 years) and added to the cumulative

total).

2.4.2.1 For the purposes of the implementation schedule set forth in this subparagraph

2.4.2, each manufacturer's PC and LDT fleet shall be defined as the total projected number of

low-emission, ultra-low-emission and super-ultra-low-emission PCs and LDTs from 0-5750

pounds loaded vehicle weight sold in California. Each manufacturer's MDV fleet shall be

defined as the total projected number of low-emission, ultra-low-emission, and super-ultra-lowemission MDVs less than 8501 pounds gross vehicle weight rating sold in California.

3. Calculation of NMOG Credits/Debits

3.1 Calculation of NMOG Credits for Passenger Cars and Light-Duty Trucks.

3.1.1 In 2001 and subsequent model years, a manufacturer that achieves fleet

average NMOG values lower than the fleet average NMOG requirement for the corresponding

model year shall receive credits in units of g/mi NMOG determined as:

[(Fleet Average NMOG Requirement) - (Manufacturer's Fleet Average NMOG Value)]

x

(Total No. of Vehicles Produced and Delivered for Sale in California, Including ZEVs and

HEVs).

A manufacturer with 2001 and subsequent model year fleet average NMOG values greater than

the fleet average requirement for the corresponding model year shall receive debits in units of

g/mi NMOG equal to the amount of negative credits determined by the aforementioned

equation. For the 2001 through 2006 model year, the total g/mi NMOG credits or debits

earned for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW and for LDTs 3751-5750 lbs. and LDTs 3751

lbs. LVW - 8500 lbs. GVW shall be summed together. For the 2007 and subsequent model

years, the total g/mi NMOG credits or debits earned for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW and

for LDTs 3751 lbs. LVW - 8500 lbs. GVW shall be summed together. The resulting amount

shall constitute the g/mi NMOG credits or debits accrued by the manufacturer for the model

year.

3.2 Calculation of Vehicle Equivalent NMOG Credits for Medium-Duty Vehicles.

In 2001 and subsequent model years, a manufacturer that produces and delivers for sale in California

MDVs in excess of the equivalent requirements for LEVs, ULEVs and/or SULEVs certified to the

exhaust emission standards set forth in section E.1 of these test procedures or to the exhaust emission

standards set forth in section 1956.8(h), title 13, CCR shall receive “Vehicle-Equivalent Credits” (or

“VECs”) calculated in accordance with the following equation, where the term “produced” means

produced and delivered for sale in California:

{[(No. of LEVs Produced excluding HEVs) +

(No. of LEV HEVs x HEV VEC factor for LEVs)] +

(1.20 x No. of LEVs certified to the 150,000 mile standards)} -

(Equivalent No. of LEVs Required to be Produced)} +

{[(1.4) x (No. of ULEVs Produced excluding HEVs) +

(No. of ULEV HEVs x HEV VEC factor for ULEVs)] +

(1.50 x No. of ULEVs certified to the 150,000 mile standards)} -

[(1.4) x (Equivalent No. of ULEVs Required to be Produced)]} +

{[(1.7) x (No. of SULEVs Produced excluding HEVs) +

(No. of SULEV HEVs x HEV VEC factor for SULEVs)] +

(1.75 x No. of SULEVs certified to the 150,000 mile standards)} -

[(1.7) x [(Equivalent No. of SULEVs Required to be Produced)]} +

[(2.0) x (No. of ZEVs Certified and Produced as MDVs)].

MDVs certified prior to the 2004 model year to the LEV I LEV or ULEV standards for PCs

and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW set forth in section E.1 of these test procedures shall receive VECs

calculated in accordance with the following equation, where the term “produced” means produced and

delivered for sale in California:

[(1.6) x (No. of MDVs meeting the LEV I LEV standards for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW excluding HEVs) + (No.

of HEVs meeting the LEV I LEV standards for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW x HEV VEC factor for MDVs meeting

the LEV I LEV standards for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW)]+

[(1.85 x No. of MDVs certified to the 150,000 mile LEV I ULEV standards for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs.)].

3.2.1 The MDV HEV VEC allowance factor is calculated as follows:

1 + [(LEV standard - ULEV standard) x (Zero-emission VMT Allowance Factor) ÷ LEV standard] for

LEVs;

1 + [(ULEV standard - SULEV standard) x (Zero-emission VMT Allowance Factor) ÷ ULEV standard] for

ULEVs;

1 + [(SULEV standard - ZEV standard) x (Zero-emission VMT Allowance Factor) ÷ SULEV standard] for

SULEVs;

where “Zero-emission VMT Allowance Factor” for an HEV is determined in accordance with

Section C.3 of the “California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2003 and

Subsequent Model Zero-Emission Vehicles, and 2001 and Subsequent Model Hybrid Electric

Vehicles, in the Passenger Car, Light-Duty Truck and Medium-Duty Vehicle Classes, as

incorporated in section 1962, title 13, CCR.”

The HEV VEC allowance factor for MDVs prior to model year 2004 meeting the LEV

I LEV and ULEV standards for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW is calculated as follows:

1 + [(MDV SULEV standard - PC LEV I LEV standard) x (Zero-emission VMT Allowance

Factor) ÷ PC LEV I LEV standard] for MDVs meeting the LEV I LEV standards for PCs and

LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW;

1 + [(MDV SULEV standard - PC ULEV standard) x (Zero-emission VMT Allowance Factor) ÷

PC LEV I ULEV standard] for MDVs meeting the ULEV I LEV standards for PCs and LDTs

0-3750 lbs. LVW.

3.2.2 A manufacturer that fails to produce and deliver for sale in California the

equivalent quantity of MDVs certified to LEV, ULEV and/or SULEV exhaust emission

standards, shall receive “Vehicle-Equivalent Debits” (or “VEDs”) equal to the amount of

negative VECs determined by the aforementioned equation.

3.2.3 Only ZEVs certified as MDVs and not used to meet the ZEV requirement shall

be included in the calculation of VECs.

3.2.4 For a manufacturer that elects to certify engines to the optional medium-duty

engine standards in title 13, CCR §1956.8(c) or (h), all such 2005 and subsequent model year

engines used in MDVs, including those produced by a small volume manufacturer, shall be

subject to the emissions averaging provisions applicable to heavy-duty diesel or Otto-cycle

engines as set forth in the “California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for

2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Otto-Cycle Engines,” or the “California Exhaust

Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel

Engines, incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, §1956.8(b) or (d), as applicable.

3.3 Procedure for Offsetting Debits.

3.3.1 A manufacturer shall equalize emission debits by earning g/mi NMOG emission

credits or VECs in an amount equal to the g/mi NMOG debits or VEDs, or by submitting a

commensurate amount of g/mi NMOG credits or VECs to the Executive Officer that were

earned previously or acquired from another manufacturer. For 2001 through 2003 and for

2007 and subsequent model years, manufacturers shall equalize emission debits by the end of

the following model year. For 2004 through 2006 model years, a manufacturer shall equalize

NMOG debits for PCs and LDTs and LEV II MDVs within three model years and prior to the

end of the 2007 model year. If emission debits are not equalized within the specified time

period, the manufacturer shall be subject to the Health and Safety Code §43211 civil penalty

applicable to a manufacturer which sells a new motor vehicle that does not meet the applicable

emission standards adopted by the state board. The cause of action shall be deemed to accrue

when the emission debits are not equalized by the end of the specified time period. For the

purposes of Health and Safety Code §43211, the number of passenger cars and light-duty

trucks not meeting the state board's emission standards shall be determined by dividing the total

amount of g/mi NMOG emission debits for the model year by the g/mi NMOG fleet average

requirement for PCs and LDTs 0-3750 lbs. LVW and LDTs 3751 lbs. LVW - 8500 lbs.

GVW applicable for the model year in which the debits were first incurred and the number of

medium-duty vehicles not meeting the state board's emission standards shall be equal to the

amount of VEDs incurred.

3.3.2 The emission credits earned in any given model year shall retain full value

through the subsequent model year. The value of any credits not used to equalize the previous

model-year's debit shall be discounted by 50% at the beginning of second model year after

being earned, shall be discounted to 25% of its original value if not used by the beginning of the

third model year after being earned, and will have no value if not used by the beginning of the

fourth model year after being earned.

4. Intermediate In-Use Compliance Standards.

4.1 LEV I Intermediate In-Use Compliance Standards.

4.1.1 LEV I ULEV Standards. For 2001 and 2002 model year PCs and LDTs

A reactivity adjustment factor is the ratio of the specific reactivity of a low-emission vehicle

designed to operate on a fuel other than conventional gasoline (including a fuel-flexible, bi-fuel or

dual-fuel vehicle when operating on any fuel other than conventional gasoline) compared to the NMOG

baseline specific reactivity of vehicles in the same vehicle emission category operating on conventional

gasoline. The procedure for determining compliance with the standard is set forth in Section H.1.1 of

these test procedures.

5.1 The following specific reactivity values and generic reactivity adjustment factors have

been established pursuant to the criteria established in Part II.D. of these test procedures. A

manufacturer requesting to certify to existing standards utilizing an adjustment factor unique to its

vehicle/fuel system must follow the data requirements described in Part II, Section D of these test

procedures.

three emission data and/or engineering development vehicles from MDV test groups.

2.2.2 The same test group shall not be selected in the succeeding two years unless the

manufacturer produces fewer than three test groups. If the manufacturer produces more than

three TLEV, LEV, ULEV or SULEV test groups per model year, the Executive Officer may

request 50 F testing of specific test groups. If the manufacturer provides a list of the TLEV,

LEV, ULEV and SULEV test groups that it will certify for a model year and provides a

description of the technologies used on each test group (including the information in Section

G.2.1.2(1)), the Executive Officer shall select the test groups subject to 50 F testing within a 30

day period after receiving such a list and description. The Executive Officer may revise the test

groups selected after the 30 day period if the information provided by the manufacturer does

not accurately reflect the test groups actually certified by the manufacturer.

3. §86.1829 Durability data and emission data testing requirements; waivers.

3.1 §86.1829-01. July 12, 2001. Amend as follows:

3.1.1 Delete (b)(1)(ii) and replace with: For Otto-cycle vehicles or hybrid vehicles

that use Otto-cycle engines, evidence shall be supplied showing that the air/fuel metering system

or secondary air injection system is capable of providing sufficient oxygen to theoretically allow

enough oxidation to attain the CO emission standards at barometric pressures equivalent to

those expected at altitudes ranging from sea level to an elevation of 6000 feet. For fuel injected

vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles that use fuel-injected engines, compliance may be

demonstrated upon a showing by the manufacturer that the fuel injection system distributes fuel

based on mass air flow, rather than volume flow, and is therefore self-compensating. All

submitted test proposals will be evaluated on their acceptability by the Executive Officer. As an

alternative to the demonstration described above, a manufacturer may demonstrate compliance

by testing California vehicle configurations as part of its federal high altitude certification

requirements. Engine families that meet all the applicable California low altitude emission

standards when tested at the EPA test elevation are deemed to be in compliance. The SFTP

standards do not apply to testing at high altitude.

3.1.2 (b)(1)(iii)(E) [No change, except that references to Tier 2 or interim non-Tier 2

vehicles shall mean California LEVs, ULEVs or SULEVs.]

which the vehicle is stabilized as determined in §86.1827-01 and demonstrate compliance with

the California Inspection and Maintenance (“I/M”) emission standards as specified in the

“Mandatory Exhaust Emissions Inspection Standards and Test Procedures,” title 16, California

Code of Regulations, Section 3340.42. A manufacturer shall have the option of using the I/M

test procedures in place at the time of certification or, if the I/M test procedures have been

amended within two years of the time of certification, a manufacturer may use the preceding

procedures. Test vehicles shall undergo preconditioning procedures prior to the tail-pipe test

which consist of idle conditions for a minimum period of ten minutes after the thermostat is open.

Preconditioning and test procedures shall be conducted at an ambient temperature from 68o to

86o F. The manufacturer shall, in accordance with good engineering practices, attest that such

test vehicles will meet the requirements of this section when preconditioned and tested at

ambient temperatures from 35o to 68o F.

3.1.4 Amend (b)(4)(ii) as follows: In lieu of testing vehicles according to the

provisions of §86.1829(b)(4)(i), a manufacturer may provide a statement in its application for

certification that, based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation of such I/M testing as the

manufacturer deems appropriate, all light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks comply with the

I/M emission standards.

3.1.5 Delete (b)(5). Idle CO Testing.

3.2 50oF Requirements.

A manufacturer shall demonstrate compliance with the 50oF requirement each year by testing at

least three PC or LDT and three MDV emission data and/or engineering development vehicles (with at

least 4000 miles) as determined under the provisions of Section G.2.2 of these test procedures. Only

TLEVs, LEVs, ULEVs and SULEVs are to be considered for testing at 50oF. It is not necessary to

apply deterioration factors (DFs) to the 50oF test results to comply with this requirement.

3.3 Highway Fuel Economy Test.

The exhaust emissions shall be measured from all exhaust emission data vehicles tested in

accordance with the federal Highway Fuel Economy Test (HWFET; 40 CFR Part 600, Subpart B).

The oxides of nitrogen emissions measured during such tests shall be multiplied by the oxides of nitrogen

deterioration factor computed in accordance with 40 CFR §86.1823, and then rounded and compared

with the standard as set forth in Section E.1.1 preceding. All data obtained pursuant to this paragraph

shall be reported in accordance with procedures applicable to other exhaust emissions data required

pursuant to these procedures. In the event that one or more of the manufacturer's emission data

vehicles fail the HWFET standard listed in Section E of these test procedures, the manufacturer may

submit to the Executive Officer engineering data or other evidence showing that the system is capable of

complying with the standard. If the Executive Officer finds, on the basis of an engineering evaluation,

that the system can comply with the HWFET standard, he or she may accept the information supplied

by the manufacturer in lieu of vehicle test data.

1.1.1 Subparagraph (a) through (d) [No Change.]

1.1.2 Delete subparagraph (e) and replace with: Reactivity Adjustment Factors.

The NMOG emission results from all TLEVs, LEVs, ULEVs and SULEVs certifying on a fuel

other than conventional gasoline, shall be numerically adjusted to establish an NMOG exhaust

mass emission value equivalent. A manufacturer shall multiply the NMOG exhaust emission

result for each emission-data vehicle by the appropriate reactivity adjustment factor listed in

Section E.5. of these test procedures or established by a manufacturer pursuant to Part II,

Section D of these test procedures. This product shall be multiplied by, or added to in the case

of additive DFs, the applicable deterioration factor to determine compliance with the standard.

Reactivity adjustment factors may not be applied to determine compliance with applicable

exhaust emission standards for gasoline vehicles certified pursuant to Section D.1.(p) of these

test procedures.

1.1.3 For vehicles operating on natural gas, the product of the methane mass emission

value and the methane reactivity adjustment factor shall be add to the result of subparagraph

1.1.2. This result shall be compared to the NMOG exhaust emission standards to determine

compliance with the standards.

1.2 Scope of Certification. Certification, if granted, is effective only for the vehicle/test

group described in the original manufacturer's certification application. Modifications by a secondary

manufacturer to vehicles/engines shall be deemed not to increase emissions above the standards under

which those vehicles/engines were certified and to be within the original certification if such modifications

do not: (1) increase vehicle weight more than 10 percent above the curb weight, increase frontal area

more than 10 percent, or result in a combination increase of weight plus frontal area of more than 14

percent; or (2) include changes in axle ratio, tire size, or tire type resulting in changes in the drive train

ratio of more than 5 percent; or (3) include any modification to the emission control system. No

originally certified vehicle/engine which is modified by a secondary manufacturer in a manner described

in items (1) through (3) of the preceding sentence may be sold to an ultimate purchaser, offered or

delivered for sale to an ultimate purchaser, or registered in California unless the modified vehicle/engine

is certified by the state board in accordance with applicable test procedures to meet emission standards

for the model year for which the vehicle/engine was originally certified. For the purposes of this

subsection, “secondary manufacturer” means any person, other than the original manufacturer, who

modifies a new motor vehicle prior to sale to the ultimate purchaser.

1.3 SFTP. For vehicles certified to the SFTP standards in Section E.1.2.2, full and

intermediate useful life shall mean 4,000 miles.

1.4 Certification of a Federal Vehicle in California. Whenever a manufacturer

federally-certifies a 2004 or subsequent model-year passenger car, light-duty truck or medium-duty

vehicle model to the standards for a particular emissions bin that are more stringent than the standards

for an applicable California vehicle emissions category, the equivalent California model may only be

certified to (i) the California standards for a vehicle emissions category that are at least as stringent as
Date of Release: 9/ 27/02; 45-day Notice version

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

H-2

the standards for the corresponding federal emissions bin, or (ii) the exhaust emission standards to

which the federal model is certified. However, where the federal exhaust emission standards for the

particular emissions bin and the California standards for a vehicle emissions category are equally

stringent, the California model may only be certified to either the California standards for that vehicle

emissions category or more stringent California standards. The federal emission bins are those

contained Tables S04-1 and S04-2 of 40 CFR section 86.1811-04(c) as adopted February 10, 2000.

A California vehicle model is to be treated as equivalent to a federal vehicle model if all of the following

characteristics are identical:

(a) Vehicle make and model;

(b) Cylinder block configuration (e.g., L-6, V-8);

(c) Displacement;

(d) Combustion cycle;

(e) Transmission class;

(f) Aspiration method (e.g., naturally aspirated, turbocharged); and

(g) Fuel (e.g., gasoline, natural gas, methanol).

The comparative stringency of the standards for the federal exhaust emissions bin and for the California

vehicle emissions category shall be based on a comparison of the sum of the 100,000, 120,000, or

150,000 mile standards for NMOG and NOx.

1.4.1 If a federally-certified vehicle model is certified in California in accordance with

subparagraph 1.4, the model shall be subject to the federal requirements for exhaust emissions,

SFTP emissions, cold CO emissions and highway NOx. The vehicle model shall be subject to

all other California requirements including evaporative emissions, OBD II, and emissions

warranty, except that a 2004 or earlier model-year vehicle in the federal heavy light-duty truck

or medium-duty passenger vehicle classes may at the manufacturer's option be subject to the

federal requirements for evaporative emissions and OBD II.

1.4.2 Prior to certification of a 2004 or subsequent model-year vehicle, a

manufacturer must submit information sufficient to enable the Executive Officer to determine

whether there is a federally-certified vehicle model for that model year that is equivalent to the

California vehicle model based on the criteria listed in subparagraph 1.4.

1.4.3 If the Executive Officer determines that there is a federally-certified vehicle

model for that model year that is equivalent to the California vehicle model, the following

information shall be submitted with the Part I or Part II Application for Certification as set forth

below:

(a) Part I Application for Certification: (i) Evidence of federal certification

including, but not limited to, federal certification exhaust emission levels and compliance

with federal SFTP, cold CO and highway NOx emission levels; and (ii) evidence of

compliance with California evaporative emission requirements and California OBD II

requirements or, where permitted under Section 1.4.1 for a 2004 or earlier model-year

vehicle, evidence of federal certification evaporative emission levels and compliance

with federal OBD II requirements.

(b) Part II Application for Certification: evidence of a warranty on emissionrelated parts in accordance with sections 2035 et seq., title 13 CCR as they apply to

vehicles certified under the primary California standard.

1.4.4 For purposes of meeting the California NMOG fleet average phase-in

requirements or for determining vehicle equivalent credits, the applicable California NMOG

value for passenger cars and light-duty trucks or vehicle equivalent credits for medium-duty

vehicles shall be determined as follows:

(a) The sum of the federal full useful life (100,000, 120,000 or 150,000)

NMOG and NOx value shall be compared with the next less stringent California full

useful life NMOG plus NOx value to determine which emission category (e.g., LEV,

ULEV or SULEV) is to be used for the fleet average value or vehicle equivalent credit

calculation.

(b) For passenger cars and light-duty trucks, once the equivalent California

emission category is determined (e.g., whether the vehicle is considered a LEV, ULEV

or SULEV), the applicable NMOG value to be used in the fleet average calculation is

set forth in the table in section E.2.1.2 of these test procedures for passenger cars and

light-duty trucks. For example, if the full useful life (120,000 miles) NMOG plus NOx

standard to which the federal vehicle is certified is 0.110 grams per mile, that vehicle

would be considered a LEV II ULEV for fleet average purposes because the combined

LEV full useful life NMOG plus NOx value is 0.125 and is the next less stringent

emission category. The applicable emission standard to be used in the fleet average

calculation would therefore be 0.040 grams per mile.

1.4.5 The vehicle shall be subject to the federal in-use requirements and the emission

standard applicable for in-use compliance purposes shall be the federal standard to which the

vehicle was federally-certified.

1.4.6 The tune up label shall meet the federal requirements applicable to such a

vehicle with an additional sentence which reads: “This vehicle conforms to federal regulations

and is certified for sale in California.” The value used in the smog index label shall be the

California emission category to which the vehicle was deemed certified for fleet average

NMOG purposes.

1.4.7 The requirements in Section H E.1.4 do not apply in the case of a federallycertified vehicle model that is only marketed to fleet operators for applications that are subject

to clean fuel fleet requirements established pursuant to section 246 of the federal Clean Air Act

(42 U.S.C. sec. 7586). In addition, the Executive Officer shall exclude from the requirements a

federally-certified vehicle model where the manufacturer demonstrates to the Executive Officer's

reasonable satisfaction that the model will primarily be sold or leased to clean fuel fleet

operators for such applications, and that other sales or leases of the model will be incidental to

marketing to those clean fuel fleet operators.

1.4.8 A manufacturer may certify a passenger car, light-duty truck or medium-duty

vehicle to federal exhaust emission standards pursuant to Section H E.1.4 prior to the 2004

model year.

diesel, the manufacturer shall submit projected California sales and fuel economy data nineteen months

prior to January 1 of the model year for which the vehicles are certified.

3.3 Credit Reporting.

In order to verify the status of a manufacturer's compliance with the fleet average or

phase-in requirements for a given model year, and in order to confirm the accrual of credits or debits,

each manufacturer shall submit an annual report to the Executive Officer which sets forth the production

data used to establish compliance, by no later than March 1 of the calendar year following the close of

the model year.

ratios. To request the use of NMOG to NMHC ratios, a manufacturer shall establish during

certification testing the ratio of measured NMOG exhaust emissions to measured NMHC

exhaust emissions for each emission data vehicle for the applicable test group. The results shall

be submitted to the Executive Officer in the Part II application for certification. A manufacturer
Date of Release: 9/27/02; 45-day Notice version

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

I-3

may conduct in-use testing on the test group by measuring NMHC exhaust emissions rather

than NMOG exhaust emissions. After approval by the Executive Officer, the measured

NMHC exhaust emissions shall be multiplied by the NMOG to NMHC ratio submitted in the

application for certification for the test group to determine the equivalent NMOG exhaust

emission values for the test vehicle. The equivalent NMOG exhaust emission value shall be

used in place of the measured NMOG exhaust emission value in determining the reactivity

adjusted exhaust NMOG results. The equivalent reactivity adjusted NMOG exhaust emission

values shall be compared to the NMOG exhaust emission standard applicable to the vehicle

emission category (TLEV, LEV, ULEV or SULEV) in which the test group was certified.

(b) For fuel-flexible vehicles certified to NMOG standards, the manufacturer may

request from the Executive Officer the use of a methanol (M85) or ethanol (E85) NMOG

exhaust emission to gasoline NMHC exhaust emission ratio which shall be established during

certification testing for each emission data vehicle for the applicable test group. The results shall

be submitted to the Executive Officer in the Part II application for certification. After approval

by the Executive Officer, the measured gasoline NMHC exhaust emissions shall be multiplied by

the M85 or E85 NMOG to gasoline NMHC ratio submitted in the application for certification

for the test group to determine the equivalent NMOG exhaust emission values for the test

vehicle. The equivalent NMOG exhaust emission value shall be used in place of the measured

NMOG exhaust emission value in determining the reactivity adjusted exhaust NMOG results.

The equivalent reactivity adjusted NMOG exhaust emission values shall be compared to the

NMOG exhaust emission standard applicable to the vehicle emission category (TLEV, LEV,

ULEV, or SULEV) in which the test group was certified.

(c) As an alternative to measuring the HCHO content, the Executive Officer may

approve, upon submission of supporting data by a manufacturer, the use of HCHO to NMHC

ratios. To request the use of HCHO to NMHC ratios, the manufacturer shall establish during

certification testing the ratio of measured HCHO exhaust emissions to measured NMHC

exhaust emissions for each emission data vehicle for the applicable test group. The results shall

be submitted to the Executive Officer in the Part II application for certification. Following

approval of the application for certification, the manufacturer may conduct in-use testing on the

test group by measuring NMHC exhaust emissions rather than HCHO exhaust emissions. The

measured NMHC exhaust emissions shall be multiplied by the HCHO to NMHC ratio

submitted in the application for certification for the test group to determine the equivalent

HCHO exhaust emission values for the test vehicle. The equivalent HCHO exhaust emission

values shall be compared to the HCHO exhaust emission standard applicable to the test group.

2. §86.1846 Manufacturer in-use confirmatory testing requirements.

2.1 §86.1846-01 July 12, 2001. [No Change.]

testing, it shall also establish by regulation specifications for the fuel as it is sold commercially to the

public.

(a) If the proposed new clean fuel may be used to fuel existing motor vehicles, the state

board shall not establish certification specifications for the fuel unless the petitioner has demonstrated

that:

(1) Use of the new clean fuel in such existing motor vehicles would not increase

emissions of NMOG (on a reactivity-adjusted basis), NOx, CO, and the potential risk

associated with toxic air contaminants, as determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in

“California Test Procedures for Evaluating Substitute Fuels and New Clean Fuels,” as adopted

September 17, 1993. In the case of fuel-flexible vehicles or dual-fuel vehicles which were not

certified on the new clean fuel but are capable of being operated on it, emissions during

operation with the new clean fuel shall not increase compared to emissions during vehicle

operation on gasoline.

(2) Use of the new clean fuel in such existing motor vehicles would not result in

increased deterioration of the vehicle and would not void the warranties of any such vehicles.

(b) Whenever the state board designates a new clean fuel pursuant to this section, the state

board shall also establish by regulation required specifications for the new clean fuel sold commercially

in California.

Determination.

100.5.1.1 Amend §86.129-00(b) to add the following specifications for medium-duty vehicles:

Power absorption unit adjustment- medium-duty vehicles.

(1) The power absorption unit shall be adjusted to reproduce road load power at 50 miles

per hour true speed. The dynamometer power absorption shall take into account the dynamometer

friction, as discussed in paragraph 86.118-78.

(2) The dynamometer road load setting is determined from the loaded test weight, the

reference frontal area, vehicle protuberances, and an aerodynamic drag coefficient as determined

appropriate by the Executive Officer. The vehicle manufacturer shall submit the procedure by which the

aerodynamic drag coefficient was determined in the test vehicle information section in the certification

application. The dynamometer road load setting shall be determined by the following equation.

(i) For medium-duty vehicles to be tested on twin or single large roll dynamometers:

Hp = (0.00182)V((0.015)(W)+(0.0375)(Cd)(A)(V2 )/(32.2ft/s2 ))+P

where:

Hp = the dynamometer power absorber setting at 50 mph (horsepower).

0.00182 = conversion factor to horsepower.

V = velocity in feet/sec.

0.015 = coefficient of rolling resistance.

W = loaded vehicle weight in pounds.

0.0375 = air density in lbm/cubic ft.

Cd = aerodynamic drag coefficient.

A = reference frontal area in square ft.

32.2 ft/s2 = gravitational acceleration

P = protuberance power (horsepower)

(ii) The protuberance power, P shall be determined per subparagraph

86.129-80(c)(2)(i).

(iii) The dynamometer power absorber setting for medium-duty vehicles shall be

rounded to the nearest 0.1 horsepower.
Date of Release: 9/ 27/02; 45-day Notice version II-11

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

(3) The road load power calculated above shall be used or the vehicle manufacturer may

determine the road load power by an alternate procedure requested by the manufacturer and approved

in advance by the Executive Officer.

(4) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a vehicle line within an engine-system

combination will be equipped with air conditioning, per §86.1828-01, the road load power as

determined in paragraph (2) or (3) of this section shall be increased by 10 percent up to a maximum

increment of 1.4 horsepower, for testing all test vehicles of that vehicle line within that engine-system

combination if those vehicles are intended to be offered with air conditioning in production. This power

increment shall be added to the indicated dynamometer power absorption setting prior to rounding off

this value.

ambient test conditions provided it can demonstrate that the vehicle tailpipe exhaust emissions are

representative of the emissions that would result from the SC03 cycle test procedure and the ambient

conditions of paragraph 86.161-00. The Executive Officer has approved two optional air conditioning

test simulation procedures, AC1 and AC2, for the 2001 to 2003 model years only. If a manufacturer

desires to conduct an alternative SC03 test simulation other than AC1 and AC2, or the AC1 and AC2

simulations for the 2004 and subsequent model years, the simulation test procedure must be approved

C. 50oF Emission Test Procedure.

The NMOG, CO, NOx and formaldehyde emissions from all light- and medium-duty TLEVs,

LEVs, ULEVs and SULEVs shall be measured according to the Federal Test Procedure as set forth in

Subpart B, 40 CFR Part 86 at a nominal temperature of 50oF with the following modifications:

(1) Test Procedure.

(a) The test vehicles shall not be subject to a diurnal heat build prior to the cold

start exhaust test or evaporative emission testing.

(b) Following a 12 to 36 hour cold soak at a nominal temperature of 50oF, the

nominal preconditioning, soak, and test temperatures shall be maintained within 3oF of the

nominal temperature on an average basis and within 5oF of the nominal temperature on a

continuous basis. The temperature shall be sampled at least once every 15 seconds during the

preconditioning and test periods and at least once each 5 minutes during the soak period. A

continuous strip chart recording of the temperature with these minimum time resolutions is an

acceptable alternative to employing a data acquisition system.

(c) The test site temperature shall be measured at the inlet of the vehicle cooling fan

used for testing.

(d) The test vehicle may be fueled before the preconditioning procedure in a fueling

area maintained within a temperature range of 68 to 86oF. The requirement to saturate the

evaporative control canister(s) shall not apply.

(e) If a soak area remote from the test site is used, the vehicle may pass through an

area maintained within a temperature range of 68 to 86oF during a time interval not to exceed

10 minutes. In such cases, the vehicle shall be restabilized to 50oF by soaking the vehicle in the

nominal 50oF test area for six times as long as the exposure time to the higher temperature area,

prior to starting the emission test.

(f) The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases of the test sequence to

prevent abnormal fuel distribution.

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

D. Procedure for Determining Specific Reactivity.

The following procedure shall be used by the Executive Officer to establish reactivity adjustment

factors for exhaust emissions of non-methane organic gases (NMOG) for the purpose of certifying a

vehicle of specific emission category and fuel for sale in California.

1. Procedure for Determining Specific Reactivity.

(a) A representative speciated NMOG exhaust emission profile for light- and medium-duty

low-emission vehicles shall be established according to the following conditions:

i. Speciated NMOG profiles shall be obtained from a statistically valid number of

vehicles in each vehicle emission category and fuel type. The maximum incremental reactivities

to be used are provided in the “California Non-Methane Organic Gas Test Procedures,”

incorporated by reference in Part II, section A.100.5.4 of these test procedures.

ii. The speciated NMOG profiles shall identify and quantify, in units of grams per mile

or milligrams per mile, all compounds above the specified laboratory limit of detection as

measured in accordance with the procedures specified in the “California Non-Methane Organic

Gas Test Procedures.”

(b) The “grams ozone per mile” value of each organic compound identified in the speciated

profile shall be determined by multiplying the “grams per mile NMOG” emission value of each

compound by the applicable maximum incremental reactivity value as specified in the “California NonMethane Organic Gas Test Procedures.”

(c) The “total grams ozone per mile” of NMOG exhaust emissions from each vehicle

emission category and fuel type shall be the sum of all the organic compounds values calculated in step

(b).

(d) The specific reactivity of each vehicle emission category and fuel type shall be

determined by dividing the “total grams ozone per mile” value calculated in step (c) by the “total grams

per mile of NMOG emissions.”

2. Procedure for Determining Reactivity Adjustment Factors.

(a) The baseline specific reactivity of vehicle emission categories operating on conventional

gasoline shall be determined by the Executive Officer in accordance with the procedure outlined in

subparagraph 1., above.

i. Gasoline meeting the specifications listed below shall be used to determine the

baseline specific reactivity low-emission vehicles operating on conventional gasoline:

(The test methods used for each fuel property shall be the same as the test method for the identical fuel

property listed in Part II, Section A.100.3 of these test procedures.)

(b) The generic specific reactivity of vehicle emission categories operating on clean fuels

shall also be determined by the Executive Officer according to the procedure outlined in subparagraph

1. above.

(c) The candidate vehicle/fuel “reactivity adjustment factor” shall be determined by dividing

the specific reactivity of a candidate fuel and vehicle by the baseline specific reactivity of vehicles in the

same vehicle emission category using the procedure outline in subparagraph 1. above.

(d) For a candidate vehicle/fuel system operating on natural gas, a “methane reactivity

adjustment factor” shall be calculated by dividing the maximum incremental reactivity value for methane

given in the California Non-Methane Organic Gas Test Procedures by the specific reactivity for the

vehicle in the same emission control technology category operated on conventional gasoline as listed in

subparagraph (a)i. above or established by the Executive Officer pursuant to paragraph 4 and 5 below.

The current methane reactivity adjustment factors are listed in Part I.E.4 of these test procedures.
Date of Release: 9/ 27/02; 45-day Notice version II-18

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

3. Procedures for Establishing Test Group Specific Reactivity Adjustment

Factors.

A manufacturer may request the use of a unique specific reactivity for a specific vehicle test

group category and fuel only if a baseline specific reactivity factor for the applicable test group class and

emission category is provided in section E.5.1.1 of these test procedures. The Executive Officer shall

approve such a request provided the criteria outlined below are met.

(a) The manufacturer submits speciated NMOG exhaust emission profiles to the Executive

Officer obtained from emission testing a minimum of four different vehicles representative of vehicles that

will be certified in the test group. The test vehicles shall include the official emission-data vehicle(s) for

the engine family, and the mileage accumulation of each vehicle shall be at or greater than 4000 miles.

One speciated profile shall be submitted for each test vehicle. Emission levels of each constituent

NMOG shall be measured according to the “California Non-Methane Organic Gas Test Procedures.”

For the emission-data vehicle(s), the speciated profile(s) shall be obtained from the same test used to

obtain the official exhaust emission test results for the emission-data vehicle at the 4,000 mile test point.

The manufacturer shall calculate specific reactivity for each speciated NMOG exhaust emission profile

in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph 2. above. By using these specific reactivity

values, the manufacturer shall calculate a “reactivity adjustment factor” for each test vehicle in

accordance with the procedure specified in paragraph 3. above. A “reactivity adjustment factor” for the

test group shall be calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of the “reactivity adjustment factor”'

obtained for each test vehicle. The 95 percent upper confidence bound (95% UCB) shall be calculated

according to the equation:

n

95% UCB = RAF + 1.96 x [ Σ (RAFi - RAFm)

2

 / (n-1)]1⁄2

I=1

where:

RAFm = mean “reactivity adjustment factor” calculated for the test group

RAFi = “reactivity adjustment factor” calculated for the i'th test vehicle

n = number of test vehicles

The 95 percent upper confidence bound of the “reactivity adjustment factor” for the test group shall be

less than or equal to 115 percent of the test group “reactivity adjustment factor.”

(b) The manufacturer submits an “ozone deterioration factor” for the test group. To

determine the “ozone deterioration factor,” the manufacturer shall perform two tests at each mileage

interval for one or more durability vehicle(s) tested in accordance with the procedures and conditions

for calculating mass deterioration factors specified in Part I, Section F.3 (40 CFR §86.1819) of these

test procedures. The Executive Officer shall approve the use of other mileage intervals and procedures

if the manufacturer can demonstrate that equivalently representative “ozone deterioration factors” are

obtained. One speciated profile shall be submitted for each test. Emission levels of each constituent

NMOG shall be measured according to the “California Non-Methane Organic Gas Test Procedures.”

A mean gram per mile NMOG mass value and a mean specific reactivity value shall be calculated by

taking the arithmetic mean of each measurement from the speciated profiles. These results shall be
Date of Release: 9/ 27/02; 45-day Notice version II-19

Board Hearing: 11/14/02

multiplied together to obtain a mean “total grams ozone per mile” value at each mileage interval. A

mean “ozone deterioration factor” shall be calculated in accordance with the procedures in Part I

Section F.3 (40 CFR §86.1819) of these test procedures except that the mean total “grams ozone per

mile” value determined at each mileage interval shall be used in place of measured mass emissions. If

the “ozone deterioration factor” is determined to be less than 1.00, the “ozone deterioration factor” shall

be assigned a value of 1.00. The “ozone deterioration factor” shall be multiplied by the product of the

official exhaust NMOG mass emission results at the 4,000 mile test point and the mean “reactivity

adjustment factor” for the test group to obtain the NMOG certification levels used to determine

compliance with the NMOG emission standards.

(c) The speciated profiles, mean “reactivity adjustment factor” for the test group, and

“ozone deterioration factor” are provided to the Executive Officer with the certification application for

the engine family.

(d) The maximum incremental reactivities to be used are provided in the “California NonMethane Organic Gas Test Procedures.” Any manufacturer which intends to use the table shall submit

to the Executive Officer a list which provides the specific organic gases measured by the manufacturer

and the maximum incremental reactivity value assigned to each organic gas prior to or with the submittal

of a request for the use of a reactivity adjustment factor unique to a specific test group. The Executive

Officer may deny such requests if he or she determines that the maximum incremental reactivity value

assignments are made incorrectly.

(e) Methanol and LPG Requirements. For a candidate vehicle/fuel system powered by

methanol or liquefied petroleum gas, the reactivity adjustment factor determined by the manufacturer

shall be multiplied by 1.1. The resulting value shall constitute the “reactivity adjustment factor” for the

methanol or liquefied petroleum gas-powered vehicle/fuel system.

4. Procedure for Establishing A New Reactivity Adjustment Factor.

The Executive Officer may establish by executive order new reactivity adjustment factor

pursuant to the procedures set forth above. The Executive Officer shall notify manufacturers in writing

of a new reactivity adjustment factor within 30 days of their establishment.

5. Procedure for Revising Reactivity Adjustment Factors.

The Executive Officer may revise any reactivity adjustment factor listed in Part I.E.5 of these

test procedures or established by the Executive Officer pursuant to the above criteria if he or she

determines that the revised reactivity adjustment factor is more representative of the ozone-forming

potential of vehicle NMOG emissions based on the best available scientific knowledge and sound

engineering judgment. The Executive Officer shall notify manufacturers in writing of any such reactivity

adjustment factor at least 3 years prior to January 1 of the calendar year which has the same numerical

designation as the model year for which the revised reactivity adjustment factor first becomes effective.

However, a manufacturer may use the revised reactivity adjustment factor in certifying any new test

group whose certification application is submitted following such notification, if it so chooses. A

manufacturer may also continue to use the original reactivity adjustment factor for any existing test group

previously certified with that reactivity adjustment factor until a new durability-data vehicle is tested for

that test group.
